Game Playing

We went to the Apple store for a repair on Nathan's ipad. From my experience they give you a new ipad mini 2 for a bit of a cost and a 90 day guarantee. That is what he went for and his ipad is/was in rough shape. They marked mine as EXCELLENT. They marked his as good but it had a chip in the corner. His was covered by a case which he now tells me he needs a new one. have to laugh. The screen looked like 20 million footprints were on it and it never seems to clean. He got yet another anniversary present. LOL

We did go out to eat around the corner. I had 2 drinks. Oh boy - Nathan nothing. Dennis said no signs. We are home at 630pm lol. Her temps is 99.5. I just checked and she just started nesting. We will see how it goes. I am glad Nathan got his ipad fixed. 

Tonight, tomorrow - time will tell. But I have a lot to groom tomorrow - not necessarily easy coats so what is your guess - 2am? if its not tonight please after I finish grooming - please. It is so hard to juggle - grooming and whelping and dogs. give me a shot of super human powers, will ya?

Great, you went out for dinner and had a productive visit to the Apple store. Rest up, Leti may not wait until a 'convenient time' to have her babies.

All but 1 has ever had pups when we were wide awake and during the day. I must be cursed.

Yes, Nathan was mighty happy.

Great that you got a little celebration in. Can’t you postpone your grooming Darlah, isn’t that something people would understand. When Patches and Radar were born I was so glad you were available and ready! No grooming is more important than the birth and care of a brand new litter imho.

I am so happy you had a nice day. Something to hold onto for the next few days. BTW what did you get for your anniversary. My iPad is also going. I had to take everything off my iPad and start over. Lost some things but it has been better not freezing all the time. It especially froze while I was blogging with you and I had to start my long chats again. Is that my signal not to say so much?

Exciting time, can't wait to see the puppies. Glad to hear you were able to go out to celebrate your aniversary, even if you had to have cellphone in hand at all times :)

Ronnie:

No matter what age your ipad is if you make a genius appt Apple can check it out and if it is going offer you one at a minimal cost of the same type.

Nathan got me flowers - roses that are wilting after 1 day. :-( I was disappointed that they are already almost dead. It wasn't what I call a great anniversary.

December 3, 2017 | Registered CommenterDarlah

I'm so glad to hear that Leti is fine. Just taking her time . . . . We were beginning to be concerned.

Darlah, when roses wilt so quickly, especially if they haven't opened up, it means they have been tainted by the cold. I would return them and they should gladly replace them.

Happy Anniversary! Laci sends hugs and now we're going out for a walk in the park - literally. :-)

Thanks, Debi. Nathan is a man. He would never take them back but as I type they are all dead. That was fast.

December 3, 2017 | Registered CommenterDarlah

I hear ya! The man here leaves ALL issues for me to deal w/. I know you have more important things on your mind.

Hoping Leti is able to deliver soon!
